Can this world be two things at once? Yes.

Hard and Hopeful
by: Lee Stuart

This world is hard
         Bruised emotions
         Lost love
         Warring countries
         Rampant disease

Yet,
So full of hope
         Fresh spring flowers
         New love
         A strangers help
         Birth

This world is hard
         A lost child
         Cancer
         Starving babies
         Homelessness

Yet,
So full of hope
         Elderly couples holding hands
         Medical cures
         Scientific discoveries
         Peace treaties

This world is hard yet so full of hope
